Asparagine--tRNA ligase, cytoplasmic

BE0000607ProteinHumansNARS1

Catalyzes the attachment of asparagine to tRNA(Asn) in a two-step reaction: asparagine is first activated by ATP to form Asn-AMP and then transferred to the acceptor end of tRNA(Asn) (PubMed:32738225, PubMed:32788587, PubMed:9421509). It is acted on by 1 drug in DrugBank.
